Re: Sign if you agree. RE:bus stop spacings

I used the Q35 back in the 1960s so I know Green Lines doubled the summer weekend service to Riis Park which the MTA maintained when they took over the route in 2004. Green only stopped at Avenue U, Kings Highway, and at the Junction. If you didn’t get on at the first stop, chances are you couldn’t even get in the first bus after that even with the extra summer service.

First the MTA turned it into a local making all stops. When that proved disastrous, they went back to the original stops, then added a few more like at Avenue P and changed the route circling around to serve Ft Tilden and Roxbury and changing the turnaround at Glenwood Road. That was a good change because it used to take at least five minutes just to reverse directions and you had to stay on the bus for those five minutes.

Until two years ago, all the lifeguards ended work on Labor Day. Now it’s the Sunday after Labor Day.
